How IHEX thermal storage can benefit your HVAC products and systems

With IHEX thermal energy storage, you will improve your bottom line and enhance your cooling system’s capabilities.

Strengthen the operation of your chiller fleet

IHEX systems can buffer daily and seasonal variations in cooling demand, enabling connected chillers to run at their optimal part-load efficiencies at all times, lowering both maintenance and energy costs.

Enhance your cooling system’s capabilities

Make your system resilient to off-design conditions

Unlike traditional ice storage, IHEX systems respond to unforeseen conditions within minutes due to their unrivaled flexibility in their charge/discharge schedules.

Partial charging is allowed, and discharge can be boosted to more than twice its normal output.

Add superior performance with a capital-light investment

IHEX systems are a low-cost option to expand what your cooling system can do:

  • Climate Resiliency. With a full ice tank, you are protecting yourself in the face of intensifying heat waves and wildfires

     

  • Blackouts. IHEX systems can deliver cooling with limited on-site power, allowing you to keep cool during outages

     

  • Demand Response. IHEX systems allow you to save money by load shifting and get paid through demand response incentive programs
